114.milov.nl - a starry mouse-driven snowflake generator of sorts, made with Processing. Simply drag your mouse over the applet and watch the patterns form. (But don't stare at it for too long or you'll see it every second you close your eyes; believe me, I know.)
I'm so used to thinking in layers (dhtml mindset) that it's always a nice surprise to be able to move thousands of pixels around in a Java environment.
Btw, I think I found a small bug. When you click outside the window and move you mouse in the window again, there is a fat line in the lower part of the screen.
And its good to see you on the p5 board as well.
I'm absolutely not in Java nor Processing, but 71Kb seems HUUUUUGE for that. Is there some way so optimize the size ? AFAIK Java applets can be compresser in RAR or JAR, but the this new iambald entry is already in .JAR
I had already seen some Processing applets, and it seems powerfull and extremely easy to use.
Does anybody have some infos about size optimization/compression in Java or Processing ? The official site provides little informations about that >__<
The Processing Export-to-web works by including a bunch of standard classes in the jar-file. I was surprised by the size as well; it was actually more than 100KB before I removed some obviously unnecessary classes.
